Sharing a drive from MS-DOS

[vivekian]

Hi,

I have a MS-DOS machine which needs to share a drive to Win XP
machine. After reading quite a few messages, it seems installing a
couple of files from Microsoft did the trick. But on running "net
share" i get the following error :

The SERVER service is not yet started.
Is it ok to start it ?
Service failed to initialize
Error 2114: The Server service is not started.

Is there a workaround to this.

Thanks in advance,
vivekian

You need to run pure DOS with a NDIS2 stack.

Please define EXACTLY how you are setup.

This should include the version of DOS, and the contents of the CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC.BAT
files as well as the PROTOCOL.INI file.

The details are as follows :

DOS Version : 7.10
Microsoft DOS TCP/IP Protocol Driver 1.0a
MS_DOS LAN Manager v2.1 NetBind

Contents of Configy.sys :
FILES=20
device=c:\windows\ifshlp.sys
LASTDRIVE=Z
device=c:\windows\himem.sys


Contents of autoexec.bat

@echo off

rem mode co80,50
rem mode mono

set path=%path%;c:\net;c:\bin;c:\vim

rem Load utilities.
smartdrv /X
doskey /insert
rem Setup serial.
mode com1 96,n,8,1

rem Enable networking and map drives.
call c:\net\neton.bat

4dos
net share

This is what i tried from my readings across Usenet. There seems to be
two files which are used to update TCP/IP for MS-DOS. These are
located at : ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/Clients/MSCLIENT
I executed these and they overwrote the existing client. Next there is
an update called wg1049.exe which is supposed to add share
capabilities to the net command. Hope this information helps.
Appreciate your response.

Thanks,
vivekian

DOS Version : 7.10

That's the version of DOS that was integrated with win9x. You need to
use a pure standalone dos version ie 6.22 or earlier.

Everything else you said regarding the dos client and updated net.exe
from wg1049.exe was spot on.

A word or warning. Keep this machine well away from the Intenet. The
single character password bug which was patched in win9x was never
repaired in win3.1 or dos

Jim.

Is there any way at all to do this on the DOS version currently being
used. I don't think i can change the current setup. Yes, its away from
internet, its within an intranet.

Thanks a bunch,

There is NO NDIS2 driver being loaded in CONFIG.SYS.

This needs to be loaded and bound to the NIC via c:\net\protocol.ini

Your setup is incomplete.

Can you please guide as to how the NDIS2 driver can be loaded, and
bound to protocol.ini ? Is there a link as to where it is available ?

Thanks,

Hi Dave,

After downloading the driver -- Prodos.exe from the site, tried to run
it. It gave an error -- "Can't be run in DOS mode" . Is there an
alternate to this ?
Should I try the Legacy driver on the same website ? Supposedly there
is a driver available on www.crynwr.com but its not NDIS.

Thanks a bunch,

You can use a Packet Driver (Crynwr) to NDIS2 shim.

Don't you have a Win32 PC capable of downloading the Prodos.exe utility and the extract the
needed files and then port the files to the DOS setup ?

The below should use E100B$ not E100B or TCP/IP won't bind to the adapter.

Hi,

I use similar files to load DOS with net support in order to copy
images to new computers on our domain at office. When tryed to load
from the same flash drive at home my laptop (me home net is with DHCP
enabled router) hang ups when executes:

c:\net\tinyrfc.exe

Any ideas to solve the problem?

Thanks!
